Five-part scoring rubric

Every reviewed output uses the same 1–5 scale across all five criteria.

  1. 1Prompt adherence — requested subject and constraints are recognizable.
  2. 2Structure adherence — requested sections and transitions are present.
  3. 3Lyric adherence — language, point of view, hook, and exclusions are followed.
  4. 4Style consistency — genre, instrumentation, tempo, and vocal direction stay coherent.
  5. 5Output usability — the result is complete enough to review, revise, or share.

Evaluation standards

  • Every tier receives the same English source prompt without rewriting.
  • All five scoring criteria use one shared 1–5 scale.
  • Audio references, product tier, and evaluation date stay attached to each row.
  • Framework revisions use explicit version and publication dates for reliable comparison.
